Description
Apple iPhone 7 32 GB Black, C Grade, GSM unlocked
The Black iPhone 7 on this page carries 32 GB, is graded C Grade, and is GSM unlocked for 4G LTE service. C Grade 32 GB phones are bench stock: working boards and cameras for repair shops that re-house them or sell them as clearly used. The listing name carries the C Stock token, which is TG's C Grade label.
The iPhone 7 is Apple's 2016 flagship: a 4.7-inch Retina HD LCD, the A10 Fusion chip, 2 GB of RAM, a 12 MP camera with optical stabilization, a solid-state Touch ID home button, and the first IP67 rating on an iPhone. It dropped the headphone jack, so the Lightning port handles audio and charging. Apple shipped it in 32, 128, and 256 GB and in six finishes, and software support ran through iOS 15.
Dealers buy the iPhone 7 from TG Wireless as the lowest-ticket Touch ID iPhone that still runs on US LTE networks: prepaid and MVNO counters, trade-in replacement pools, export lots, and repair shops that want a known platform with cheap, plentiful parts.

Condition: C Grade
C Grade units are fully tested and working but carry heavy cosmetic wear, such as deep scratches, dents, or screen marks. They suit repair, refurbishment, and value channels where the device is re-housed or sold as clearly used.
Network and compatibility
The iPhone 7 is a 4G LTE handset with VoLTE, so the US 3G shutdowns of 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G retirement in August 2026 do not take it off the air. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. GSM unlocked units register on AT&T, T-Mobile, and their MVNOs, while Verizon-sourced units carry the A1660 radio set with CDMA and GSM bands and work on LTE across all three national carriers once unlocked. Carrier acceptance and VoLTE provisioning for an eight-year-old model depend on the exact variant, so confirm with the carrier before committing to volume. The phone takes one nano-SIM and has no eSIM.
Resale fit
- Prepaid and MVNO counters that need the cheapest Touch ID iPhone still accepted on US LTE networks.
- Trade-in, insurance, and warranty replacement pools that want one graded model in consistent quantity.
- Export lots to Latin America, Africa, and South Asia, where a 4.7-inch iPhone with IP67 sells on brand alone.
- Repair shops and refurbishers that stock the iPhone 7 for screens, batteries, housings, and donor boards.
